Well, living in the country does have a few disadvantages. I cannot find any ceramic brake pads anywhere. There are no NAPA stores around and O'Reilly's said they can't get them.
I need both the front and rear pads.

Can someone help me out here? I will be coming to Dallas on Thursday I believe (Arlington) and if there is a store near I30 then I will pick some up.

J.D there's 2 Napa stores here. One store I can through a rock and hit it. Is there not any in Longview?

Why do you want the ceramic pads?

I had them and the pads cracked with moderate use on the street and drag strip. Very low dusting but they don't stop very well.

380, No NAPA stores in Longview. I checked.

HIHOAG, I am not lookingfor perfomance, I just want to try to get rid of the brake dust. It is 5 times worse for me, because I have/will have white wheels.;)

Justin,
Pep Boys Quiet stops are ceramics made by Rabestos. Very low dusting, this is what I had in my truck. I posted the part numbers a while ago. You may try searching.

Thanks for the help guys. I ended up picking up a front and rear pair at NAPA in Mesquite last night. They sure are proud of those suckers. $185!! But as much as I will be driving it, it will last me 6 years.
